A bona fide California girl, Julie Marie Berman was born and raised in Los Angeles. Courted by casting directors and talent scouts from a young age, Berman had already starred in a number of commercials by the time most kids were learning their multiplication tables. In fact, at the tender age of 6, she landed two commercials in one week: one for Hilton hotels and one for a doll called Raspberry Cakes.

Her big break came when she was in the eighth grade, in the form of the recurring role of Shelby Connor on the hit series 7TH HEAVEN. The role of Lulu Spencer, the daughter of legendary couple Luke and Laura, is her first on daytime.

Berman graduated in May 2006 from the University of Southern California, where she majored in film and television. Her official Web site is www.juliemarieberman.com.
